We
fund two types of activities: those which are focused on a
particular neighborhood, and those which have a communitywide
focus.

The
neighborhood-focused activities are located within one of the
neighborhoods which are part of the CDBG Target Area. These are census tracts
where at least 51% of the individuals have incomes of 80% of the
median income or less.

Community-focused
activities are those which benefit lower income individuals
wherever they live. Depending on the funding source we use, some
activities serve residents within the City of Madison and some
serve a larger area, such as Dane County.
